If I'm working in a project, is there a keyboard shortcut key to open a recent project (equivalent of File > Open Recent)? I'm on a Mac.
It seems like you can't even assign a shortcut to "Open Recent" in the Keymap either.
Open a project Click New Project on the Welcome screen. From the main menu, select File and click Open or Open Recent if you have worked with the project lately. Alternatively, you can open projects from the command line.
Ctrl + H = "Type Hierarchy" view = shows a tree of parent and child classes of this class. Ctrl + Shift + A = "It does a search as you type through all the commands in intellij. Not only that but when you find the command you want it also displays the corresponding shortcut key next to it!"
In Eclipse, you press CTRL + SHIFT + O “Organize Imports” to import packages automatically. For IntelliJ IDEA, if you press CTRL + ALT + O “Optimize Imports”, it just removes some unused imports, never imports any package.
NOTE: The following is based on IJ 14.1.4 running on W7. There may be minor discrepancies on other OS', such as Reopen Project being named Open recent on Mac
Another approach that doesn't require adding any keyboard shortcuts:
Press cmd + shift + a
(Mac) / ctrl + shift + a
(Windows) to perform an action search, then search for "open recent".
